How to Ensure Optimal Water Quality for High-Pressure Fog Systems in Horticulture

High-pressure fog systems are becoming increasingly popular in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), as they offer a precise and efficient way to control the temperature and humidity levels in the environment. By creating a fine mist of water droplets that evaporate quickly, fog systems can lower the ambient temperature through evaporative / adiabatic cooling and increase the […]

Dairy Barns and Cow Comfort: The Triad of Shade, Airflow, and Evaporative Cooling

When I began designing high-pressure water fogging systems, an experienced engineer in the southwest gave me a piece of advice. He mentioned three main factors in keeping people or animals cool during peak summertime heat: shade, air movement, and the third crucial ingredient, evaporative cooling. Shade is the obvious one—getting out of the sunlight under

Industrial Facilities: Fog Systems for Dust and Odor Control

The industrial workplace is fraught with environmental challenges that impact not only quality of product but also workers’ health and safety.  The financial impact is substantial, as industries struggle to ensure the safety of their workforce, meet regulatory demands, and still be profitable. Air quality is chiefly impacted by two environmental factors requiring mitigation in
